Following their all-action Test series, India and Bangladesh are set to clash again in the shortest form of the international game over three games in six days — the 1st T20 live stream is scheduled to take place on Sunday, October 6.

Below are all the details for India vs Bangladesh live streaming services in the US, UK, Australia and India. But don't worry if you're on holiday while it's on because you can watch IND vs BAN live streams from anywhere with a VPN.

Roll back one week to the last red ball game, and you would have been forgiven for thinking that the T20 cricket had already started. Records tumbled as India went full throttle in order to make up for two whole days lost due to rain. Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli and KL Rahul all went big in an innings of 285 in only 34.4 overs.

That turned the interrupted 2nd Test India's way, helping to wrap up a 2-0 series win. Now they have the chance to follow up their T20 World Cup glory earlier in the year with three home games against the tourists. The awesome Suryakumar Yadav is the new captain of a squad that also includes IPL stars like Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Rinku Singh and Washington Sundar.

Bangladesh managed to get through to the Super 8 stage of the World Cup, but slumped to three losses from three at that stage. It's been five years since they've beaten their neighbor in a T20 international, and morale will inevitably be low after such a demoralising pair of defeats in the Tests. It's set to be a tough week for the Tigers...
